Forgot password on a laptop with Windows 7

I forgot my password on my laptop. I have tried to reset is by doing the startup repair method. I got to the very end when you press the Shift button 5 times and then you should see the sethc (CMD Box) window pop up on the login screen. Mine does not do
that. I tried going back to retrace my steps 3 times and I did everything correctly. I do not have the password recovery disk, any suggestions on what to do next? I know you can put it on a usb but I can't figure out how to do that. Please Help!

 

forgot password for account!!!!

You need to boot into Safe Mode. Do this by mashing F8 when the computer is starting, right before Windows loads, until you see a bunch of options. Select "Safe Mode". It'll boot into Safe Mode, and bring you to the login screen. At the login screen, go in as "Administrator", and from there go to the control panel. In the control panel, open "users", select the account you forgot the password of, and click "remove password". Restart the computer and all will be well *Smile .
